Bucharest, Romania - FCSB suffered a 1-4 defeat to CFR Cluj in a derby at the Arena Națională on 15 September 2026. The Romanian champions, already with three losses this season, fell behind early with goals from Aliev and Korenica. Despite a 2‑minute opener by Miculescu, the match ended in a humiliating loss. Owner Gigi Becali announced that defender Târnovanu will be replaced by Zima, citing a lack of quality players. The result leaves FCSB in 9th place with 31 points, 4 points behind UTA Arad in the play‑off zone. The loss signals a sharp decline for the former European champions.
